IsComputerOn.com takes a first look at the ZETA's multiuser capabilities currently under development. This is "a first beta, usable but still incomplete and with bugs" reports ICO. The article uses screenshots to show what multiuser looks like in ZETA, and describes how to create user accounts, as well as some of the existing problems with the implementation which, hopefully, will be fixed before release. As Magnussoft told us a few days ago, multiuser support will be available as an update to the upcoming ZETA 1.21, but no release date is mentioned.

Why does the system need a reboot after creating a new user? Not even Windows requires that.

Also, it's a bad idea to let the root user login on a desktop system. It would be more elegant if only mortal users were able to login. You would then elevate your privileges only for certain tasks, like installing software system wide or changing settings for all users. That said, this is a great leap forward, considering you were running as root (or Baron, as UID 0 was named on BeOS) the whole time prior to this.
